NO on 2055 - same objection as others (already raised)

Regarding 1858, I have 2 concerns:
 1) I also feel the interpretation of "this" is changed, but following
slightly different interpretation. The current LRM states that the
lookup starts in the randomize class OBJECT, (not the in context of the
randomize method). The name "this" is valid in the context of a
non-static method (like a hidden parameter), it is not a property of the
class object. So "this" would not be found in the scope of the class
object - thus it should be resolved in the scope in which the randomize
call occurred.
 2) I'd also expect to be able to apply the local:: prefix to a
hierarchical name. For example, "local::x.a" - where 'x' is a local
struct containing a member 'a'. The current text seems to only allow
"local::" as a prefix for an "identfier".

Otherwise I agree with the intent of both proposals. I prefer Gord's
text for specifying the default name resolution (in the absense of the
identifier list).


YES on the rest.
